Travel to the Water Margin

Chapter 112 Arriving in Heianjing
In the dead of night, the desolate moonlight shone faintly on the street paved with stone slabs.

There was no one on the street, except for the half-lit lanterns of a ronin lodge that swayed in the cold wind.

Ronin Inn is located at the junction of the outer city and the inner city of Heianjing, only a few minutes' walk from the gate of the Heianjing Palace. However, death is expensive, and the lights are closed at this time on weekdays, but today is a bit abnormal.

Not only was the door of the store not closed, but the Neon Country guy in the store also looked out of the door from time to time, as if waiting for someone.

Who else would be wandering on the road so late at night?

Suddenly, a sudden sound of horseshoes came from afar.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen tall horses have come from far to near, leaping through the silent night, while reining in front of the door.

Jian Ma neighed, and the figures landed on the ground, more than a dozen people wrapped tightly in bamboo hats, and their eyes fell on the face of the guy who came out to greet him.

The guy didn't say anything, he just stretched out his fingers and pointed upwards. Immediately, several people stepped on their feet and jumped up to the eaves of the building.

The first chubby guy also violently pushed away the neon guy, and led the others to rush upstairs like a gust of wind.

In the room, Zhang Xiaoman was lying on the table and chairs, his face puffed up, and he kept picking at the little wallet left in his hand.

"It's so dark, the Nihong Country costs me 50 taels for a day's stay, woo woo woo, my dowry is gone again."

"Ahem." Old man Hai was speechless, he could only sigh, he understood that this iron rooster who could cry for a tael of silver was indeed his savior.

With a bang, the door of the room was kicked open, a group of ninjas filed in, and the lights in the room flickered.

Zhang Xiaoman, who was sitting with his back to the door, didn't move or even raise his head.

The old man Hai, who was lying on the bed, got up straight, and when he saw the short fat man's face, he sneered and said, "I thought someone was chasing us all the time, so it turned out to be His Majesty's Ninja Master."

"Hand over the highest mystery."

With a "bang", several ninjas rushed in from the window sill with knives.

"Ghost wheel flash"

"Old man, hide yourself! These people are really haunting!"

Zhang Xiaoman spat, drew his long sword out of its sheath, and rushed towards the group of masked ninjas.

Instead, Old Man Hai moved his body up.

With a pop, the candlelight went out, and the sound of fighting from upstairs became more and more shrill.

In the end, I saw these more than ten ninjas carrying two people into the palace on horseback.

On a clear morning, the sun rises.

The bright morning sun is full of golden clouds.

"drive!"

The grass sprouted tender seedlings, the birds were singing loudly, and the horses were neighing like crazy.

It was only slightly bright on this day, and the gate of Ping'an capital was opened. From a distance, a large number of figures could be seen entering the city.

"It's better to come early than to come early." Peng Li laughed immediately.

Xiao Wu suddenly pointed to the dark area of ​​warriors in the distance and said, "My lord, there are soldiers and horses stationed there."

Several people looked at it, and there were at least 3 soldiers and horses stationed there.

Cavalry, spearmen, archers, and even the smoke rising slowly.

"Why are there so many people stationed outside Heianjing?"

Lin Youde saw that the group of soldiers seemed unfamiliar but got along with each other tacitly, and they were obviously dispatched from various places.

Peng Li took a look and said thoughtfully: "Neon has 7 realms, Xihai, Nanyang, Donghai, Beilu, Dongshan, Sanyin, and Sanyang. The supreme rulers of these 7 realms are seven generals."

"The army in front of me has the four logos of Sanyo, Higashiyama, Hokuriku, and Dongkai. It seems that it should be the soldier of Emperor Shirakawa who is always jealous."

After Peng Li's explanation, Lin Youde figured it out.

Emperor Shirakawa controlled 4 soldiers and horses, a total of as many as 10 samurai, and because they were all 4 northern samurai, they were nicknamed northern samurai.

And the Fujiwara family now only has Xikaido left.

However, Nanyang and San'in belong to the two generals on the left and right of the current Emperor Toba.

One thing is that Tiger Wing Fort is located at the junction of Nanyang Road and Xikai Road.

Peng Li's Tiger Wing Fort was snatched from the Fujiwara family Xikaidao by bribing General Nanyang.

The Nanyang General who got the money doesn't care who you are, after giving the money and paying the protection fee, naturally he wants to protect the calf.

Anyway, the surface friction between Xikaido and Nanyang Road has been constant, but if the Fujiwara family attacked, General Nanyang would not take action.

"This Emperor Shirakawa is threatening the reigning Emperor Toba to let him obediently give up his position to his 5-year-old son, and at the same time show it to other people, honey and stick, all at the same time."

Hua Niang pointed to the crowd that had already started to surge and said, "Let's go in."

"Walk."

The scale of Ping'an Jing is the same as that of the state city in the Song Dynasty, but it is divided into inner and outer cities. The inner city is the emperor's palace, and the outer city is the place where officials and people of Ping'an Jing live and do business.

Lin Youde and others were mixed in the crowd, wearing simple old cloth clothes, and each of them carried a large bundle of firewood and fresh vegetables on their shoulders.

Lin Youde casually mentioned the name of Kudo Jiuichi, and then swaggered into the city.

As the team approached Anjing's interior step by step, Lin Youde's eyes were wide open, and Lin Youde was even more amazed.

Looking through the gaps in the bamboo hats, a bustling crowd walked by, all of them colorfully dressed.

No matter men, women, old or young, everyone greeted them with a smile, bowed and chatted.

The peddler holds the goods in his hands and puts them in silk cloth, all of which are waiting for the owner to buy the goods.

On both sides of the city wall are shops, restaurants, and other unknown houses.

Coming here is like coming to the ancient Tang Dynasty. The houses are bright, exquisite and spacious. Compared with Koguryo, this place is like a kingdom.

Just at this time, a group of northern warriors in bright armor passed by, with vulgar language and extremely tyrannical actions, suddenly turning the quiet and bustling street into a miasma.

There were also quite a few unkempt ronin with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes, but they squatted quietly on the corner of the street, watching the passers-by in silence.

As he walked, Lin Youde smelled the smell of blood everywhere, and even saw a corner where several ronin silently dragged a samurai into the darkness.

"Beware of those rogues."

Perhaps, neon people are all indulging in the superficial luxury, while ignoring the turbulent waves in the dark.

Peng Li, who was in the group, raised his head and locked his eyes on the Ronin Inn which is the closest to the inner city of Ping'an capital.

"Find a hotel and stay."

"it is good."

Lin Youde glanced at the side of the street, and was immediately happy when he arrived at the restaurant of the Neon National Edition. After riding all the way for more than 4 days, his buttocks were about to open. This time, he had to take a good rest and take a bath.

Hua Niang glanced at Lin Youde and whispered, "Don't regret it."

"Thank you sir."

"Is there any wine to drink? Sajia's mouth is almost dry."

"Xiao Er, come to 5 rooms!"

"My lord, this way please!"

"Hiss, your chicken leg is so expensive??"

"Grandma is a bear, a room costs 50 taels a day? Why don't you grab it?"

In the end, Lin Youde was jealous of Li An, and slowly took out his hand, and the white money in his hand disappeared immediately.

The neon guy took the money overjoyed and said, "Master, please come inside."
